Re: Hosting needed for MediaGoblin project video files

[Jim Campbell]

Thanks for the replies, all. I'm speaking with someone who may be willing to 
take over the hosting while keeping them in their current spot on the Rackspace 
cloud (the cost is trivial, and they want to continue hosting something else on 
Rackspace).

I'll provide an update in the next week or so.

Cheers,

Jim
